Topic: Eating to much?!?!?!?
I had a RNY on march 18th. I feel like im eating to much. I don't want to stretch my pouch. I feel in a way paranoid about it. I didn't eat a lot at first when I was able because I thought I was going to "break" myself. I don't want to be eating to much. I am eating a lot of chicken and lowfat cheese. making my own tortilla pizzas. It's hard finding things to eat out because I'm 19 and my family and friends like to go out to eat a lot. I'm more cautious when it comes to eating out then when it comes to eating at home because I know I can eat what I am making. I feel like im eating to much of what I make at home. I don't know if its normal to be nauseous as often as I am. Does anyone have any suggestions??

AWESOME!
Something similar happened to me. I got careless and forgot about laundry, ran out of clean T-Shirts on a day I had to fix the car. I thought to myself "Oh go**** won't be nice of me but people will have to see me shirtless." I remembered an old batch of shirts I used to wear freshman year of college/high school and decided to give them a shot (with no great hope) and I fit into them so well, I unpacked the whole thing.

That's great!! Where did you get a scale that weighs in ounces??
I think that sausage has more density than beans and pasta, hence the difference.
I had surgery two weeks before you and have lost 58 pounds. It feels so good and yet I lust for more weight lost! 
Selfish, selfish, selfish, but I am loving how I feel. The flinstones are still the vitamins I take and they are my special treat every day. So that works well.
Take care, Janice

That is great...I am not allowed carbs yet....that is the last thing I can add...I go back to the surgeon and nutritionist on Tuesday. I had surgery 3/20 and as of this morning I am down 62 lbs.
I feel the best ever...I can do more then ever. I play tennis 3 times a week, walk and play Wii Fit every day for at least 35 minutes (I do the step aerobics and running in place).
Keep up the great work. Take those vitamins...I take 8 a day...B-12, B Complex, Multi, 3 Calcium Citrates (with each meal), Iron and Vitamin C. I do not like all them but just do it.
Hugs,
Dori
Topic: RE: Help!! Not Loosing
Hello! I had the same thing happen I had lost 28lbs. and then for what felt like forever (3 weeks) I was at a stand still. You have to remember that this weight didn't come on over night and it's not going to come over night! Your body has to adjust to your sudden weight loss. It will pick up again I promise. After those 3 weeks I steadly have been loosing. It has been 10 1/2 weeks now and I am 1 0z. away from 50 lbs. Don't worry the scale will move again! -Shannon
Topic: 1oz. away from 50 lbs.
Well my surgery was 3/19/08 I started at 269 and of this morning naked and not breathing, trying not to take on any extra weight I was 220! How cool is that.
I am so happy that I had this surgery. I can report that I have not thrown up do to anything that I have eaten, thankfully! Eating is going pretty good, I have decided that I can't really have breakfast sasuage. This morning I got a breakfast sandwich, I took off half the english muffin and got in 4 bites and I was stuffed. About 5 mins. later all hell broke loose and spent 10 mins. in the bathroom then I was all better. If anyone out there can answer me this why is it that a breakfast sandwich takes 4 bites to fill me and then other meals like the other night I had 1 1/2 speedies 3 tbs. baked beans and 2 tbs. pasta and then I was full. Weird I think. I am having a little problem remembering to take the damn vietamins if anyone out there is taking a good one that is only 1 pill let me know.
Other then that I am soo very happy with everything I have gone from a 26-28 to 18-20 in bottoms and 26-28 tops to xl or xxl depending on maker. So happy!!!!
It is amazing how much better I feel about so many things, never realized how depressing it is being so over weight. Any who good luck to all...
